On the evening of August 19, 2022, a sense of unease settled over a Milwaukee neighborhood as gunshots shattered the evening calm. When police arrived at the scene near 39th and Lloyd, they discovered the body of Tameron Larry, a 35-year-old Black male. He had been fatally shot shortly after 7 p.m. in what appeared to be a sudden act of violence. The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office was called to the scene and officially pronounced him deceased.
In the immediate aftermath, the
Milwaukee Police Department launched a homicide investigation. Detectives canvassed the area, speaking with potential witnesses and searching for any evidence that might shed light on the circumstances that led to Larry's death. Authorities made a public appeal for information, urging anyone who may have seen or heard something to come forward. At the time, the police stated they were seeking unknown suspects, indicating that the perpetrator or perpetrators had fled the scene before law enforcement arrived.
As days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, the investigation into Tameron Larry's murder continued, but public updates on the case dwindled. Despite the initial efforts by law enforcement, there have been no subsequent announcements regarding any arrests being made or the identification of any suspects in connection with the shooting. The case has grown cold, leaving a family to grieve and a community with unanswered questions about the violent end to a man's life on a summer evening. The Milwaukee Police Department continues to seek information from the public to help bring closure to the case.
